Chapter 21 Cedric the Helpful One
Mike was very angry. He had just finished showing off in front of Thorfinn, and before he even walked out of the Hufflepuff Common Room, the real person came to slap him in the face.
That's right, the person who came was none other than the famous Hufflepuff, Cedric Diggory. A perfect Hogwarts student, excellent in both character and learning, all the good qualities that people imagine a Hogwarts student should have are reflected in him.
Mike felt that if the Diggory family was not a traditional Hufflepuff family, Slytherin would be the most perfect destination for Cedric.
The Diggory family is not one of the 28 pure-blood nobles, but this does not mean that the Diggory family is weak. On the contrary, wizard families like the Diggory family, which tend to live in harmony with Muggle wizards, are very popular in the current wizarding world.
The Diggorys of all generations have been stars of Hufflepuff, and almost every generation of their descendants will be Hufflepuff prefects. With the help of the large number of Hufflepuffs, someone in their family has even become the Minister of the Ministry of Magic.
It can be said that the Diggory family has absolutely mastered the true meaning of the tactic of uniting the majority to attack a small group. Although their family has been suppressed during Voldemort's reign, after ten years of recuperation, their current strength is definitely the best in the wizarding world.
They are the new generation of nobles in the wizarding world, much more prominent than those old nobles who are listed as pure-blood nobles but have long been corrupt.
But this does not mean that Mike is afraid.
Mike twisted his neck as he stood there, making a creaking sound in his neck, and then turned to look at Cedric.
"Look who this is, Franklin." Mike looked unfriendly, "Famous Cedric, what can I do for you?" "
I know you, Mike Townley. When my junior brothers told me that two tall Ravenclaws came to the lounge to cause trouble for Dolphin, I guessed it was you. But I warn you, don't think that Hufflepuffs are easy to bully!" Cedric took two steps forward, staring at Mike's eyes with his big eyes.
"You are really a great saint, Cedric. But I am curious about which eye of yours saw us bullying Hufflepuff students?" Mike was not afraid. "
It doesn't matter. I believe my junior brothers. This is the Hufflepuff common room. People like you are not welcome. Get out of here!" Cedric raised his voice.
As the two confronted each other, more and more people came to watch the excitement.
"Please watch your words. It seems that the tenet of Hufflepuff is to welcome everyone, right? There are no door locks in the Hufflepuff common room. Doesn't this mean that everyone is welcome?" A trace of hostility appeared on Mike's face. "What do you mean by people like us? Is it possible that even Hufflepuffs have started to discriminate against people based on their bloodline? Please explain it clearly!"
The black prickly pear wand appeared silently in Mike's hand. Seeing him take out the wand, the little wizards around him exclaimed, and some senior Hufflepuff students also took out their wands and prepared to help.
Cedric's face was very bad. He thought that such a freshman should be kicked out immediately after being warned by such a well-known senior student, but he didn't expect Mike to be so difficult to deal with.
No matter who wins or loses in a fight between him and Mike, their reputation will not be very good, especially now that Mike has accused him of a certain blood discrimination. Although the students of Hufflepuff are willing to believe him, other colleges, especially Ravenclaw, must be more willing to believe Mike.
"I'm talking about people like you who bully classmates!" Cedric began to panic, "Where is Thorfinn? Find Thorfinn to confront him face to face!"
Cedric was still a teenager after all, and he didn't have enough experience in dealing with people. He hurriedly ordered the young wizards around him to find Thorfinn, who was involved, to quickly clear himself of the suspicion of blood discrimination. If it was confirmed that he had blood discrimination, not only would his reputation in Hogwarts be hit, but his family's prestige in the wizarding world would also be severely damaged.
However, Thorfinn, the person involved, had disappeared long ago. This timid little wizard disappeared as soon as he saw Cedric appear.
Looking at the Hufflepuff wizards who were frantically searching for Thorfinn in the dormitories, Cedric's face became more and more ugly. If the person involved didn't show up, he couldn't explain the matter clearly.
At this time, Mike put away his wand and prepared to end this farce. If they really found Thorfinn, it would be a bad ending.
"Thorfinn is my very important friend, how could I bully him?" Mike fiddled with the note with the formula of the magic drink in his hand, and said to Cedric with a smile, "Did you misunderstand something, dear senior Cedric."
Cedric could see that Mike was giving him a way out, so he could only smile stiffly and replied that it should be a misunderstanding.
"Since it's a misunderstanding, it doesn't matter, but my weak heart has been hurt a lot because of your misunderstanding, senior, please apologize to me, senior!" Mike was unreasonable.
Cedric's smile disappeared, and he found that he was trapped by Mike again. Now that he had admitted that the previous incident was a misunderstanding, Mike had become a victim. If he did not apologize to Mike, his reputation would be ruined.
"I'm sorry!" Cedric said word by word. He knew that a man should be able to bend and stretch, but he really couldn't swallow this breath.
"Hehe!"
Mike heard the answer he wanted, and he chuckled back at Cedric and left the Hufflepuff lounge. Cedric behind them had a dark face.
Mike was very happy on the way back. This time, he not only got the formula he wanted, but also stepped on Cedric. I believe that this matter will soon spread to the four major colleges.
But what he didn't expect was that Dolphin would actually run away at this time. Cedric just now was obviously here to help him. Maybe he was afraid that he would retaliate against him in the future?
What a silly boy, who would dare to help him after this incident?
But it's good this way. Dolphin's days in Hufflepuff will definitely be very difficult in the future. At that time, he will only come to ask for help from his "friend".
Thinking of this, Mike's mood became better, and he even whistled. He and Franklin laughed all the way back to the Ravenclaw common room.
